A Close Call at Goodwill
I decided that I would help alleviate the pain of my next move by going through my closet and giving away bags and purses I don't use anymore. I put a bunch of purses and bags in a black trash bag, including a pair of sneakers I had only worn a few times. Yes, I even threw in my fake Louis Vuitton purse that Frank and I haggled from a very sketchy man near Canal Street during my NYC trip.
Boyfriend and I took my goods and the roommate's unwanted television to the local Goodwill. We went to the donation area, and buzzed for someone to come help us. No one came to help us.
Bf: Hey, this sign says they don't take tvs.
Me: They don't take tvs?
Bf: That's what the sign says.
Me: Well, no one is coming. Let's just leave everything here infront of the door.
Bf: The sign also says that dumping is illegal.
Me: My mom does it all the time. Let's go.
Bf: Ehh...
Me: Come on, let's go!
I'm a criminal. Heaven help us.

LOL!!! Reminds me of when I first re-visited Korea with my mom. Apparently bribing the customs officials is expected, despite the numerous warning signs and threats.

Don't lose too much sleep over it. They can take it out of their CEO's jillion-dollar salary.

Unfortunately, Stacy had her name and address written on numerous items which she illegally dumped at a Goodwill store.
We regret to inform you that she will not be back for quite some time.
